About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To welcome all strangers to Manchester, from outside UK of in and to meet people to practice spanish with. When I'm travelling I like to meet up with local people to find out about a place.

ABOUT ME

I am friendly and open-minded and enjoy meeting people who've had different experiences to me. I'd be very happy to welcome anyone to the North East, even though I've not lived there very long. I've travelled around Europe and South America and I really appreciated meeting people with local knowledge to show me around.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the simple things in life, friends, family, food free time. Take time to talk to people and listen to what they have to say.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to welcome strangers and show people around my city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met people in South America for English-Spanish language exchanges, I have been involved with a group in Bogota and volunteering giving out food and clothes to people who needed them, and just once I've stayed with a family. I thought it was great to meet local people when I was travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling in South America too much to mention, but the Bolivian Salt Flats were near the top. Treks were my favorite. Travelling around Europe was also great, I went to many places and learnt so much about European history. Rome, Budapest and Berlin were my favorite cities.
I also kayaked in a fjord in Norway, it's some of the best scenery I've ever seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could help someone that wants to improve their English and they could help me with spanish.
